This distribution contains all files necessary for building RNO for any
supported operating systems. All file names are 6 characters or less to
acommodate all operating systems. Once you have built the executable image,
you can use it to generate documentation and help files for your operating
system. Several files are included to document this version. Instructions for
building the program are in the BUILD.DOC file. Bugs that have been fixed are
in RNOBUG.DOC. The latest enhancements are in CHANGE.DOC. BRIEF.DOC is a brief
version of the full documentation. For VMS users the RNO.EXE is provided as a
convenience.

.c;DSR compatability
.s
The SAVE commands were designed independently from DSR and as such are
slightly incompatible with DSR usage. Since I do not have access to the
new DSR manuals, I can not say more than this. Hopefully this will not
cause users too much grief.
